## Description

Buy

Review: Not cheap but worth it - Have had it run solid for around 2 months now and it has not missed a beat, hopefully will be equally as reliable long term. Rock solid metal case which doubles as a heat sink makes it feel a very premium product which partly justifies it’s price. Celeron CPU copes well with multiple VLANS, VPN server and client and a 500mbit WAN connection. Have mounted it sideways on the wall so that it’s tucked away out of the way. Best of all, if you have your own WiFi APs and have FTTP with BT, you can use this to connect directly to the Openreach modem and skip having to have the BT Hub router altogether.
Review: Get what you pay for - If you want to have a reliable PFSense firewall, cant do much better than this. Enough network ports, plenty of grunt and can add enough memory and storage for caching, etc. Runs slightly warm to the touch which is showing the passive heatsink is doing its stuff. Wish it was cheaper but you get what you pay for - Not a lot of money gets a badly specced generic chinese mini pc that's badly cooled so buy once and get something decent.
